Cells respire through a process called cellular respiration, which primarily occurs in the mitochondria. This process involves breaking down glucose and oxygen to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency of the cell. Cellular respiration can occur aerobically (with oxygen) or anaerobically (without oxygen), resulting in different byproducts like carbon dioxide and water in aerobic respiration, or lactic acid or ethanol in anaerobic processes. Overall, cellular respiration is essential for providing the energy required for cellular functions.
